Cupid was there; how could he resist
the temptation to come when the wild
zeptyrs, dancing waves and happy
music so favored his progress ? We
are sorry to relate that one of our
youthful teachers sadly remarked that
he was boycotted, but according to
appearances the decree must have
been repealed soon afterwards, Scr We
saw him walking arm in arm with one
of the gentler sex, and both had an
air of supreme content. One of the
party was accused of leaving her heart
behind in the capital city, and many
others of losing theirs on the Journey.
Few of our number indulged in the
merry dance, but pleasant chats were
conducted while others participated

Correspondence of the Beacon.


Dear Messrs. Editors Though a
week or so has elapsed since the time,
yet | trust it is not too late to give an
account Of the delightful trip to Old
Point by the Maryland teachers. The
majority Of the Charles and st. Ma
rvs delegation left Washington July
4th for the renowned Fortress, each
with bright face and high spirits.
The evening at first was delightful,
and the refreshing bre, re over the
blue Potomac was in striking contrast
to the sultry air of the city just left
behind; and though the gentle Ian
tern of night failed to do her part in
honor of the occasion, ye, the deck Of
our proud steamer held many charms
for several Of our merry company, and
they seemed loath to withdraw and
bid goodnight.
But ere the morning dawned We
were favored % with storm, and
such a storm, that even the stout
hearts of some Of the teachers quailed,
and one grave professor was seen fit.
ting on the preserver. Wen, prudence
Is the better part OF va!or, but it Is
trying on ones patience to be large
under such circumstances, or l might
say hard to fit All things must have
an end, and finally morning broke
over a sullen sea, and many detected,
sea-sick countenances scanned the
southern horizon. OF course all were
disappointed that the Piney Point
company was not with us. But our
spirits Immediately went up about
ninety degrees on Catching glimpse
of the handsome hotel and pressing
the old Virginia strand.
After breakfast most of the party
busted themselves in seeing what was
to be seen, and started first to make
the circuit of the fort. The first ses-
sion of the Association began at 80
P. NJ. Tuesday evening. Messrs.
Lloyd and Lee failed to be present,
but Mr.. Buchanan, Superintendent of
Public Instruction in Virginia, and
Mr.. Newell, Superintendent of same in
Maryland, took their places. and We
may confidently add proved them
selves fully equal to the emergency.
After this We were favored with an
address by Mr.. Wilmer, which was
much enjoyed. Music followed and
other addresses and the program
proved, on the whole, to be quite in
teresting.
1t would be both needless and i'm.
possible for me to attempt to describe
in detail this exceedingly pleasant
trip. The weather, though cloudy
for the greater part of the time, was
cool and delightful. Amo & the places
Of interest are the fort, Soldiers Home
and Normal School. There were ex-
cursions also TO Hampton. Norfolk
and Virginia Beach.
We trust our st. Mary's and Charles
county teachers will excuse Us when
we say that evidently some Of our pro-
fessors made attempts to spout in the
halls Of the Association, but, Messrs.
Editors, we really think they succeed
ed better about 6 A. NJ. in the brae-
ing waters of Hampton Roads. 1t

WI. b.: | was so thoroughly done

DIR. ADAMS: Tho well water in Da!-

is a necessity IN summer. Make you a
good cistern, or use the hydrant.
JONES: concluded the census
of the third ward yesterday. showing
527 names, or a gain of over twenty
over the official state enumeration. No
material increase was expected.
MERCHANT: A lady who has nothing
else to do may keep up with society,
but man can't do two things at once.
He cannot keep up with society and
his business at the same time.
Mrs. S.: 1t may now be put down as
a rule of etiquette, that young gentle
man invariably takes and shakes the
hand of young lady to whom he is
presented. This is a sensible rule, too.
TRAMP: The mayor has declared

dition: Haven't slept any for three
nights-last night, tonight and to-
morrow night.
MRS. PIKE: A progressive dinner

ices for another term, all right. You

IT. WILLIAMS: | am native OF
Dallas county and so are many of my
neighbors in Wichita county. They
are unable TO buy seed with which to
plant crop. In aiding them, the
good people here are aiding their own
people-their own family.
P.W. LINsKIE: The trouble regard
ing Mr.. Holbert's money is the result
of groundless suspicion. Mr.. Il. e.
Thornton, of Gordon, suspected unfair
dealing here, and used the wires to
prevent su Il a thing there. five had

The TEACHERS INSTITUTE.

XanktOr COunty's Educators in Session
Their Sayings and DOings,
The teachers institute which opened
in the court house In this city yesterday
morning has called together the largest
number of teachers ever assembled from
Yankton county and taking the work oil
the opening hours as a sample it is safe
to presume that the institute, which
lasts n week, will be the most inter.
esting of any previous gathering of q
like nature. On the opening day, yes.
terday, fifty teachers from in and out the
city were present and to-day hat num-
Der has been increased by twenty,so tina,
about seventy were present this after
noon. Tie institute is being conducted
by Prof. John Ogden, of Mcintosh coun-
ty, Dakota, assisted by N. M. Hills,
county superintendent OF the schools OF
Yankton, Prof. o. 81. Taylor, Miss
Lucia Saunders, Prof. A. f. Bartlett
and others of Yankton. This corps OF
instructors insures thorough teaching OF
the lessons prescribed. The order of ex-
ercises for each day is dictated by a pro.
gramme of various topics, all of which
are selected with regard to the benefit
which teachers may derive and while the
institute is called for the express purpose
OF teaching teachers knowledge
it is also called for the purpose of teach.
ing young teachers how to teach, These
topics are discussed briefly, but fire.
quentIy, and thus the institute sessions
are made interesting by work in g va.
riety of departments.
Yesterdays sessions were taken up
with preliminary work and it was
not until this afternoon that the
real duties began. This morning Prot
Ogden discussed language and teaching
and Prof. Taylor discussed penmanship
After this came the opening OF the quea'
ton box and the replies to its contents
This institute then adjourned for ONE
hour for dinner and work was resumed
at / 80.
